Hostinger Website Builder
Much like it does with hosting, Hostinger places an emphasis on ease of use and user experience when it comes to its website builder. It may not be as jam-packed with features as some other builders, but it’s well-rounded, clean-looking, and affordable. This makes it one of the best builders for an uncomplicated experience that still offers plenty of creative freedom.
Shopify
Shopify is simply fantastic for any retail-oriented business and loaded with features. The cheapest plan is more than enough to get your online business started. That said, some other e-commerce platforms make it easier to customize your site, at the same price points. It’ll come down to individual features, and which of those you think are better for your business.
Acuity Scheduling
Created by Squarespace, Acuity Scheduling is a flexible, user-friendly software that allows your clients to self-schedule appointments online. It also has integrated payment and client relationship tools to help streamline your workflow and extend your reach. Best of all, it’s quite affordable, making it an excellent option for small-to-medium-sized businesses.
SolidWP
ALERT: iThemes has rebranded to SolidWP! SolidWP (formerly iThemes) comes with extensive security, backup, and site management tools to help you safeguard and monitor your WordPress websites. It offers excellent value for money if you operate multiple websites or run a business, but it may be expensive if you only manage a couple of websites.
BigCommerce
BigCommerce is a perfectly good option for anyone who’s serious about starting an online business, and wants lots of visual customization options. It’s definitely intended for teams, though, with a dash of enterprise-level design philosophy. Still, no one should discount BigCommerce immediately. It’ll just take more time for e-commerce beginners to adjust to its host of...
Striven
Striven is a business management software with impressive tools for managing employees, customers, and finances. Striven also includes a solid set of project management features, with great tools for organizing tasks. However, if you aren’t planning to use all its services, Striven probably won’t be the best value option for your business.
Durable
Durable’s wide range of AI features and simple editor make it incredibly easy to get online quickly. Also, its built-in customer relationship management (CRM) tools work great for freelancers and small agencies. That said, limited customization options and integrations make it less suitable for more complex websites and businesses looking to scale.
Miro
Miro is an online whiteboard tool designed to simplify presenting and sharing your work. The software’s highly visual structure and extensive collaboration options make it an excellent choice for planning, tracking, and completing tasks. That said, the lack of advanced reporting features may make it challenging to keep up with more complex projects.
PinnacleCart
PinnacleCart is an all-inclusive e-commerce software that offers web hosting and great site security solutions. Although it lets you sell an unlimited number of products and doesn’t charge transaction fees, it still can’t quite match Wix’s e-commerce features, which involve a wider selection of online store templates and apps in general.
Big Cartel
Big Cartel is a convenient, all-in-one tool that allows you to set up, manage, and run an e-commerce store. It works great for small businesses that are just starting out, but it may not be the best choice for large online stores looking to scale up.
Kreateable
Kreateable has some solid designs and attractive features, but its customization options are limited – you’ll get more design flexibility at lower prices from other logo makers. For example, you might want to consider hiring a professional logo designer for only $5 on Fiverr.
FormCrafts
FormCrafts is an online form builder that allows you to create anything from surveys and payment forms to quizzes and support tickets. In addition to its web-based version, it’s also available as a free WordPress plugin for users on premium plans. FormCrafts is pretty easy to use and it has a free plan. If you’re still researching your options, take a look at our list of the...
NetSuite Project Management
Oracle NetSuite is an all-in-one platform designed to streamline every aspect of your business, from finance to customer management. NetSuite also provides a comprehensive set of project management tools, making it an excellent choice for medium-to-large businesses looking for a one-stop, flexible solution. However, small businesses on a budget that only require project...
Google Sites
Google Sites is a decent, free website builder that works well for personal projects. On its own, it lacks more advanced functionality for complex websites. However, when paired with Google Workspace, Google Sites provides more integrations and efficient collaboration tools. This makes it a solid, budget-friendly option for small businesses with basic project management needs.
Podcastpage
Podcastpage comes with some unique features that podcast creators will love. It has custom audio players, automatic episode updates, timestamps, and more. But there’s a shortage of options when it comes to customization, templates, and integrations. Depending on how the level of marketing and e-commerce features you're looking for, you might find it limiting.
